Review: If you are craving some smoky, savory, vegan goodness then look no further. Everything on the menu is fantastic, they are always coming up with new fun variations and new dishes. The guy who owns it is an awesome human and is always super friendly. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the ingredients (Field Roast chorizo, for example) and the time and love put into the food.
 
Pros: Taste * Smell * Price
Cons: Not in my mouth right now * *

Review: I had never tasted, or even heard of soy curls, til I travelled to Portland. So I tried Homegrown's bbq soy curls, served on pita. Pretty good. I'm not sure if their bbq sauce is homemade or not, but it is delicious! Baked beans were pretty good too. Next time I'll try the soy chorizo.

The staff was friendly & I love that they have a little hand-sanitizing station. There were open until 8pm on the day I went, which is late for a corner food cart, but perfect for those of us traveling to get to it. I believe that I read somewhere that they'll close in the winter, so I look forward to going back next spring. And they only take cash, so stop by the atm before you go.

 
Pros: bbq sauce is outstanding! * Friendly staff * Reasonably priced
Cons: Cash only * *

Review: Between my boyfriend and I we were able to try all of the proteins and sides in our combos this weekend. I would recommend getting the soy curls, the chorizo, mac no cheese, and the baked beans. The tofu was a little too thick/unseasoned for my taste... but still not terrible. Their mint lemonade is also fantastic! Not too minty and super refreshing. The people working at the stand were very friendly as well, always a plus! I will definitely be making my way back here again.
 
Pros: Delicious BBQ * Lots of variety w/ a combo * Friendly staff
Cons: No good seating for rainy weather * *
